Great video, always a fun watch. Charley is certainly a character.

[@BikesCarsAndSake]

Great video! Thank you!!

[@nosherz]

I was on the edge of my seat when (reminiscent of Graham G-force Jarvis) Charlie boldly manhandled the Himalayan over that snooker table flat unsurfaced road & straight through a gigantic puddle of water 😊

[@charlesbarnett2724]

I certainly love my 2019, 411 Himmy. Great little work horse

[@FunWithAJ]

Another great video Charley. Really hoping you come back to the Bike Shed LA some day for a Captain's table. Some of us US Shed members would love to meet you in person!

[@MentatOfDune]

Looks like great fun.

[@wl32]

Looking fit, Charley. Keep it up!

[@guitarcarfanatic]

Great video Charley, enjoying your content :)

[@FLY--wy2yi]

Doing my first 10 day trip this fall exploring the U.S. Southwest! Will be going to all the good spots and happy to be going with a tour company with about 7 other riders. I’ll think I’ll be on the GS 750. Charley, keep putting out excellent content…..big fan. Cheers from NY

[@dankorolyk5917]

Great job mate

[@brandonwells9384]

I like you pointed out it don’t have to be 6 months to be an adventure. Most of ours are weekends. Head out and just see where we end up. The new Himalayan looks good. My son has a 2022. Had lots of adventures on it.

[@motowipeout5670]

It's a nice looking bike!

[@craigbrown2183]

ARiemann1 has put this bike through some serious testing.

[@smashy_smasherton]

Looking forward to his opinions on it, if he gives them. He hasn’t exactly been praising it so far, except that it has ‘made it’.

[@user-fq2cf6xf2s]

I'm nearly 50 years old and I have never had a bike licence. The previous Himalayan model is the bike that came closest to getting me to become a biker but I still didn't take the plunge. Seeing this new one is making me itch again. Thanks Charlie 😆

[@jemtreays]

Ypu can pick up a barely used 411 for £2k now. Better starter bike. Lower weight, easier on the throttle, more relaxed ride.

[@user-fq2cf6xf2s]

[@lifewithglee]

Go for it mate. I'm 62 and tackling the Andes on a 125. Keeps you young!

[@user-fq2cf6xf2s]

@@lifewithglee Thanks for the encouragement, checking out your channel now 👍🏼

[@RichardS-qh8mi]

Great ride Charley - torn whether to go for the 450 Himalayan or CF Moto 450 or maybe a Tenere which I loved when I tested one. After decades of riding big bikes I want to slow down the pace and give my older bones a rest whilst enjoying the adventure, journey and scenery more.😁

[@903lew]

This is the kind of training I’d love to do. Not much of an off-roader but I also don’t like turning back when on tour.

[@lairdbufflehead]

Hi Charley Another great video. Haven’t ridden around that area since the 80’s. Brings back some great riding memories. One question: what helmet camera are you using in this video? Slangevar Craig

[@transalpinist-XL600V]

I have had the chance to ride this bike for a day on and off the roads. I liked it very much. It is easy to ride and make a lot of fun. And it is cheap, but good. So I think, paid or not, Charlie is right. I agree a 100%. 😊

[@backontwowheels9469]

I have one on order, I am hoping it arrives before the ABR festival

[@GabeTheAmerican]

Love the content, Charlie! Have you had a chance to ride the new RE Super Meteor or Shotgun 650s? The brand is really impressing me with inexpensive, quality, and approachable bikes that seem to be getting lots of new people into riding.

[@cpuuk]

I did a pukka off-road with 'Off the Kerb Adventure Rides' few years back, good people.

[@michaelpyke9368]

There's nothing like camping under the stars, five stars that is. :)

[@jimmydickson8854]

I like the bike the only concern iv got is if the ride by wire if it goes wrong or packs up when your far in the wilderness how do you fix it I think a cable might be better at least you can fix a cable I live in Australia a cable would be cheaper to produce as well

[@wiseguyrob2005]

What jacket and trousers are you sporting Charley?

[@user-hf8ie8mf3n]

Wish I lived closer, but very cool just the same. Good vid C. 👍🤪🏳️‍🌈

[@philipmillen4271]

Think nathanthepostman summed up this bike

[@slakk5093]

I really like Nathan but I think he missed the mark with his opinion on this new Himi. I went and test rode one and it is so different to the original and much improved.

[@green_genie]

☝️ what he said Nathan really has his heart stuck on the old himi. New one is a much better bike the side stand issue and weight he keeps banging on about is such a tiny issue. The bike is no heavier than the old one do you ride around on the side stand? The weight is balanced when moving it's planted and stable, suspension is light years ahead of the old bike, Engine is more versatile and the bike overall is a huge improvement on the old model.

[@ananddarnal6702]

Nathan loves his old bike soo much, that he's not able to enjoy the New one

[@dynamodav]

I agree with you all, I couldn’t watch his video, seemed to keep complaining about trivial matters

[@nathanthepostman]

Cheers for the mention. I appreciate it wasn't a review to everyone's tastes. But it was off the back of a 1200 mile ride so it wasn't without some deliberation. As I said on the video, it's a great bike and the market will decide if it's a step forward or not.

[@AlexOnABoat]

If you guys can teach me how to change gear standing up, I'll be straight there.

[@chriso7026]

does anyone know what the jacket is that charley is wearing

[@Charley.Boorman]

It’s a company called Fuel Spanish

[@peakrider4886]

@@Charley.BoormanI love it! Great looking jacket, I like the design, and a good length to it as well.

[@andrewbull3537]

Charley , why dont you and your twin (ewan McGregor 😁)do another "long way down , up , sideways ,back to front ," journey on a couple of enfield Himalayan ?🤔.......if you do i'm sure my boss lady ( wife , she who must be obeyed 😁)would let me tag along . Peace out ✌

[@twist_of_the_wrist]

The only thing missing was a wheelie from Charlie 😂

[@Bruttus4377]

Charlie make a new adventure with ewan pleace

[@markrenfrow9873]

Hey Charlie.

[@pc5647]

Nice bike, just a shame that so many of them pull to the right, instead of travelling straight, if hands are taken off the bars for just a second.

[@DarthDainese]

The problem I have is with most British things, is that it's own by foreigners

[@herrdirektor1969]

Don't know what your problem is but ever heard of Triumph motorcycles? Norton ?

[@Kevimoto]

​@@herrdirektor1969 Triumph is British owned, but many of their bikes are manufactured in Thailand with a lot of parts from India. Norton is owned by TVS of India.

[@ashhash8973]

​@@herrdirektor1969 I think Norton is now owned by Tvs motors, an Indian company.

[@herrdirektor1969]

@@Kevimoto Well you have a point there, but if all would have been made in UK or Europe including parts, the price would be too high for most. Bringing manufacturing back would be my idea, but with subsidies like Chinese companies enjoy. No matter if it is forbidden by complex international agreements. My boxer is built in Berlin, but many parts are from different countries. Welcome to the global age, for now.

[@Kevimoto]

@@ashhash8973 correct.

[@geirsvarsson8585]

Where are the support trucks and staff Mr Borman needs for his journeys?

[@volt8684]

Lovely charley but he’s always on a pay cheque

[@Charley.Boorman]

Good one VOLT8684 What’s your name?

[@GiancarloBenzina]

LOL - paid advertisement RE H450. They’re all but easy to go, give it to a ligh or small beginner. And give them the old. Nough said.

[@petegrimshaw530]

What ?!!?

[@aao331]

The old has nothing to do with this new one. This has twice the power.

Terrible roads I think he is living in 2010

[@malcolmmathers2690]

adventure sounds so guy if ya know what i mean bloody woke bollocks init.....

[@peterkoning21]

For the life of me I cannot see what people see in these crap old fashioned Royal Enfields ! It can only be because they are cheaper than other makes.....& they're ugly !!
